An RNA molecule folds back upon itself to form a "hairpin" structure held together by a region of base pairing. One segment of t
Airida [17]

Answer:

<h2>5'-UCAAUGC-3'</h2>

Explanation:

According to base pairing rule of DNA and RNA, A is always pairs with T ( in case of DNA) or with U ( in case of RNA) with two hydrogen bonds(A=T), and C is always pairs with G in both DNA and RNA  with three hydrogen bonds ( C≡G).

As given here, one segment of RNA molecule containing sequence 5'-GCAUUGA-3', so as the rule, G always binds with C and so on, so the sequence of the binding segment would be 3'-CGUAACU-5'. it can be written as 5'-UCAAUGC-3'

vredina [299]

A certain drug is made from only two ingredients: compound A and compound B. There are 5 milliliters of compound A used for every 4 milliliters of compound B. If a chemist uses 255 milliliters of compound A, how many milliliters of the drug will be made?

----------------------------------

4:5 is the same as 4x:5x where 4x is compound A and 5x is compound B.

---

Solve for "x":

If amount of compound A is 4x = 255

x = 255/4

------------------------------

Then amount of compound B is 5x = 5(255/4) = 318.75 ml

Name two examples of catastrophic events which could lead to a mass extinction?
Lemur [1.5K]

Asteroid impact

Volcanic eruptions

Explanation:

Asteroid impact and volcanic eruptions are two common events that could lead to a mass extinction.

A mass extinction is an abrupt decrease in life on earth due some catastrophic event.

  • The collision of a large bolide on the surface of the earth is a catastrophe in itself.
  • The collision and its aftermath have destructive consequences on life.
  • The force of the collision can reverberate in form of vibration throughout the earth.
  • It can cause heating of the earth surface.
  • Volcanic eruptions can become global phenomenon that upsets the earth balance.
